Kid's Talk? Communicating Effectively with Children Under 7
GIRFEC, Child Protection
The Early Years Framework indicates that a large part of the pattern for our future lives is set during the earliest years. Focusing on verbal skills as well as creative methods, this essential workshop will explore how we can communicate more effectively with young children. Interviewing young children is a skill which is required in child protection contexts, but it is rarely taught. Firmly placed within the context of GIRFEC and based on theories of child development and speech and language development, this workshop will share real life examples of good practice, explore new ways of communicating and will enable practitioners to understand and meet their legal obligations to support this communication.

The Cycle of Observation, Assessment and Planning
Supporting implementation of Pre-birth to Three and early level Curriculum for Excellence
Supporting Practitioners, Curriculum for Excellence, Integrated Children's Services
‘Skilful and purposeful’ observation, planning and assessment is key to successful implementation of both Scotland’s pre-birth to three guidance and the early phase of Curriculum for Excellence.
When time is so precious, how can you ensure that the process of observation, assessment and planning is valued? How can you build in time to carefully observe children’s behaviours, gestures and actions, know which are significant, think deeply about what you see and use this knowledge to shape planning? How can you ensure these observations are discussed in a meaningful way with parents?
The day will take a common-sense and practical approach to ensuring that the cycle of observation, assessment and planning becomes a meaningful part of the daily/weekly routine, and achieves better outcomes for young children 0-5.
